If you compress a gas in a piston(a monoatomic perfect gas for instance), what is the equation that gives you the temperature of the gas or amount of heat introduced in the gas vs the volume of the gas? And what is the ratio of energy that is transformed into heat vs into pressure? Is it...

Homework Statement I don't need to state the whole problem; it's the definitions at the beginning that are giving me trouble. Homework Equations So it says, Definition: A function f(x,y) is continuous at a point (x0,y0) if f(x,y) is defined at (x0,y0), and if lim(x,y)-->(x0,y0)...

A function f is said to be symmetrically continuous at X0 if lim [f(X0 + h) - f(X0 - h)]= 0 h-> 0 Show that if f is continuous at X0, it is symmetrically continuous there but not conversely.

Hi everyone, In my advanced quantum course (I'm a master's student) I'm supposed to give a 40 minute talk about something that I find interesting that is related to our course material (which is basically anything in quantum. We basically covered: scattering theory, many-body stuff...

Hi, I'm looking for good textbooks or problem books for a 9 and 10th grade students. Maybe not as difficult as the AMC or IMO level math, but some problems that require some thought rather than just plug and chug formulas. For example, I want to find a good problem set for trig proofs, and...

capacitor problem! (Advanced) Homework Statement I am simulating a Biological system. For ease just consider it as a parallel plate capacitor. Now the simulation software takes the value of charge Q, but not the value of V. Now as C=Q/V, can we say that the charge Q of a parallel plate...

Hello all, I usually consider myself to be quite good at most things math and physics related, but compared to some of the people here, I'm sure I'm very terrible at it. I have a very advanced projectile motion problem that I need to solve (not for school). I'm trying to contact everyone...
